a black mare :
|
and i had wished that
one of the snowflakes would
find refuge on his eyelashes
so that i could lick it
into the countries between us
|
50 years :
|
a dash of else lasker-schuler's
mauve pepper in a glass
of nelly sachs' tears accompanied
by the taste of chocolate
these words cannot change
|
a silver jacket :
|
you cannot come to me
in the night nor do
we meet in my dreams
unless you were the unhealing
burn whose pain woke me
|
CHF 14,000 :
|
they become citizens after they
have died the artists and
musicians (klee schwitters veress)
of countries in which the word
home can find no rhymes
|
a red waistband :
|
she comes to concerts for
the sixth and seventh dimensions
that digital screens and speakers
will never figure : that beat
inside and outside these letters
|
the colour nothing :
|
this night
you sat next to her in a baroque room
with yellow curtains
and wrote with her pencil
on the programme
this other poem
|
you :
|
schatten unter
scharfen augen
nichts nötiger als
|
cheese roll :
|
but if the music had indeed
stopped several bars before
it faded out the ellipses and
question mark would have been justified
towards the future …?
|
she :
|
meaning- and economy-risking zones
|
me :
|
asked to draw a map
of tonight i'd say
|
i :
|
english has no diacritical accents
|
